| Abstract | Background This study sought to investigate crucial genes correlated with diabetic nephropathy (DN), and their potential functions, which might contribute to a better understanding of DN pathogenesis. Methods The microarray dataset GSE1009 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus, including 3 diabetic glomeruli samples and 3 healthy glomeruli samples. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by LIMMA package. Their potential functions were then analyzed by the GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses using the DAVID database. Furthermore, miRNAs and transcription factors (TFs) regulating DEGs were predicted by the GeneCoDis tool, and miRNA-DEG-TF regulatory network was visualized by Cytoscape. Additionally, the expression of DEGs was validated using another microarray dataset GSE30528. Results Totally, 14 up-regulated DEGs and 430 down-regulated ones were identified. Some DEGs (e.g. MTSS1, CALD1 and ACTN4) were markedly relative to cytoskeleton organization. Besides, some other ones were correlated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (e.g. ACTN4, CTNNA1 and ITGB5), as well as complement and coagulation cascades (e.g. C1R and C1S). Furthermore, a series of miRNAs and TFs modulating DEGs were identified. The transcription factor LEF1 regulated the majority of DEGs, such as ITGB5, CALD1 and C1S. Hsa-miR-33a modulated 28 genes, such as C1S. Additionally, 143 DEGs (one upregulated gene and 142 downregulated genes) were also differentially expressed in another dataset GSE30528. Conclusions The genes involved in cytoskeleton organization, cardiomyopathy, as well as complement and coagulation cascades may be closely implicated in the progression of DN, via the regulation of miRNAs and TFs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
